Submitting a case
Once a reporter has submitted a vulnerability report, they will receive an email with the VRF# (Vulnerability Reporting Form Number) as an acknowledgment of receipt of the report. At this point, the submission is placed in the "Pending" state, shown by the "Pending" tag within the report. Reporters can view their submitted reports that are in the "Pending" state by clicking on "My Vulnerability Reports" in the left menu bar.

If you have been told about an existing vulnerability case from a group already involved and believe that you should also be involved, you can contact the coordinators to be added to the case. From the "Inbox", click the button "New Message" and choose "request Request for Vendor Access to a Case" from the "Why are you contacting us?" dropdown.
Researchers are typically added to the case by default and should not need to explicitly request access. If you do need to request access, you should follow the same steps outlined above.
